Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / Re: Can't film ingame due to missing codec?

as stated on about.c*m "Codec" is a technical name for "compression/decompression". It also stands for "compressor/decompressor" and "code/decode". All of these variations mean the same thing: a codec is a computer program that both shrinks large movie files, and makes them playable on your computer. Codec programs are required for your media player to play your downloaded music and movies.

Simmers' Paradise / Where Can I Find...? / A better selection of sporty-femenine outwear and clothing in general

I am looking for a better selection of non-girly, more sporty looking, female(all ages) outwear. Think snowboarding attire and I am not talking about the ridiculous jumpsuit looking thing that came with seasons. When I am on the slopes I don't see to many girls looking like that....then again I don't see too many women wearing heels with jeans in RL either the way maxis seems to think. The severe lack of non-girly, sporty-feminine clothing in general is just depressing. I am tired of having to choose between letting my poor ladies have to walk around looking like nerds or hookers.
I have all Ep's and Sp's. Unfortunately when you type in 'Sims 2' and 'snowboarding' into google you get actual RL snowboards.... And I am always looking for less frilly-girly-hooker looking casual wear. I have so much nice, regular looking clothing for my guys and barely anything for my ladies.

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Discussion / Re: What have you done with your default sims?

I recently discovered that I actually like to play with the Pleasantview families....After giving almost everyone a make over that is.
Brandi and Dustin were shocked when they received the life insurance check for a quarter of a million simoleons in the mail. It seems that even in death, Skip was determined to care for his family. They quickly moved into a new home in a new town where Brandi ran into Fenris Wolfe(Keith Westmorland by SimplicityFlower over at MTS), a family sim working his way up the Athletic career ladder. Dustin was baffled when his mom's new man quickly moved in and Brandi became pregnant(Using the Blender I made Fenris the new baby-daddy! I decided to work with Maxis' timeline screw up). It turns out that Fenris had provided 'comfort' to Brandi the day after Skip's accident. Dustin finally accepted Fenris to the family when he saw how well he treated Brandi, Beau, and himself, granting him his blessing to marry his mom. The two quickly wed before baby Bryce was born. They now have twins on the way!
Dustin's own love life did not go as smoothly, disgusted with how awful Angela was to her sister, he broke it off with her and concentrated on his studies and work. Now that he didn't have to worry about supporting his family he began pursuing his dream of becoming a star athlete. With Fenris as his mentor, he soon reached Mascot and got into a good college, receiving multiple scholarships....I haven't gotten around to playing in my Uni neighborhoods yet.
Beau grew up well with the love and support of his big brother and mom. He is bff's with Fenris and adores his little brother Bryce, he wants to be a great big brother just like Dustin was for him. It turns out that Beau is a musical genius and he is hoping that his talent will take him to the top of the music ladder...That is, of course, if Layla Lothario(Don and Nina's daughter) doesn't distract him from it.
Bryce seems to love the great outdoors and has a really big crush on Daisy Greenman(I play in the Uber-Megahood)
Don leaves Casandra at the alter when he finds out that Nina is pregnant with his child. In the back of his mind Nina had always been the one for him. He changed his ways and became a devoted husband and father. It seems that his wandering was genetic though and karma has it bad for Donny...He now has three daughters with Nina, Layla, Jessie,and Kyla... and all of them are romance sims.
Poor Dan...Sue caught him cheating and kicked him out of the house, Kaylynn isn't talking to him anymore for some reason, Angela blames him for Dustin breaking up with her, and Lilith has decided she "isn't into labels". What else could possibly go wrong? Ah yes...the blonde hottie in the powersuit just blew him off to go make out with his ex-wife.
I am slowly getting around to playing the rest of the families...I have to give them makeovers first and do a little home remolding and renovation as well as the occasional attitude adjustment.....I mean really...It is most definitely a game unto itself as Skaarjy said.

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Discussion / Resurrection Chaos
|
on: January 21, 2011, 12:18:03 am

So I decided to resurrect the Tricou family using one of my CAS sims and the boolpropped mail box. Upon their resurrection almost the entire family declared war on each other...mass shoving, poking, slapping, pulling of fingers...it was like a Jerry Springer episode. I also noticed that the spouses were missing their marriage flags and no one had an skills. I used the full payment on all except for John Smith Tricou who came back as a Zombie. I'm thinking that may be the problem since he called Grimmy for the rest of his family. But I still don't get why the marriage markers are missing. Were they just not married or what? And is it normal for most of them to hate each other?

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / Are there any known Macarossi garden object conflict?
|
on: April 16, 2010, 07:19:34 pm

I have downloaded a few houses that have Macarossi's "Garden in October" and "Pond in July" objects, some from here and some from MTS. I have never been able to get them to show up correctly(I have a few lots that have so many apple sculptures on them it's not funny). I considered that maybe(even though it said it was included) that the mesh was missing, so I went and downloaded the sets directly from Macarossi's page. Still no joy. Here is a picture of the Bluewater lot I downloaded from here. I was wondering if there were any known objects that conflicted with this. I saw on the "Pond in July" page that there was initially a problem with a GUID conflict with the Hippo fountain, but that was resolved long before I ever downloaded the set. It's kind of sad because the sets are beautiful not to mention the houses. I have all the EPs and SPs. Side note: I also have the same problem with wallpapers not showing up.
